Please update example code to new context import, thx

Since go 1.9, x/net/context is a type alias to context, so you should not notice any difference when using.

There has been discussion on switching to the new context package, see #711.
The short conclusion is, there's currently no plan to make this change, because this is a non-issue with type alias. And the change will cause breakage for people using go versions without type alias.
